PRESET DEFINITION MODULE
Specify the Channel, or group of Channels, by entering a pair of numbers where
indicated by the cursor. When the display confirms your choice, press ENTER.
Examples:
Hint: Generally, you will specify Channels 1 - 8 for all Voices unless you want to restrict
specific Voices to certain Channels (i.e. for stereo applications, or to send different
instrument sounds through different signal processors).
7. Repeat steps 2 through 6 to assign additional Voices to the Preset. You may overlap up
to two Voices (called "layering" or "doubling") on the keyboard.
Example: Suppose you assign a bass Voice to the lower two octaves, then want to
create a more powerful bass effect in the very lowest octave. Assign an additional,
overlapping Voice (such as a pipe organ bass pedal) to the lowest octave.
Note: If you attempt to layer more than two Voices, the lower display line will say "Illegal
Asgnment".
Note: Re-assigning a Voice does not de-assign its previous assignment. If you assign a
Voice incorrectly, de-assign it (PRESET DEFINITION 24) before re-assigning the Voice.
8. After assigning all Voices, de-activate the module and play the keyboard to check that all
assignments ended up as planned. If not, refer to PRESET DEFINITION 23 and
PRESET DEFINITION 24.
